GOA is not a U.T it is a State
In the elections there is always an issue of illegal distribution of monies to the general public by the politicians and among them the most notorious is the Congress canditate for Daman & Diu Daya Patel. Among 75,000 electors in Diu & Daman he had distributed 50000000 illicit monies to the public ( an unofficial report). I would say this is the highest money paid to any single voter in the whole of India if taken the average ( monies distributed divided by the number of votes ) and out of this the so called activist of Congress in Diu Shamji Dedho, Dr Kapadia, Dilip and Kirit ( Govt. Servant ) make their fortunes. I wonder why this goes unnoticed and media does not highlight such illegal distribution of illicit monies by the Congress.
